Well, after two very busy months at work, the swine Flu, & a month long bout with bronchitis– I am back to blogging. During this down time I have picked up several great games & seen some fantastic movies– so look for reviews in the coming days. That’s it for now, check back soon.
The Misfits, the first and greatest horror Punk band ever, is releasing their first new music since 2003. The 12″ LP maxi single will feature two brand new songs– “Land of the Dead” & “Twilight of the Dead” both written by founder Jerry Only. The new LP will be released Halloween, 2009, but will be available for pre-order soon at the Misfits’ Fiend Store. As an added bonus, you can download both tracks from iTunes starting October 27th. Oh, & if you are lucky enough to see them on tour this fall, you can pick up a limited edition clear orange vinyl copy of Land of the Dead at the show. Only 1000 copies of both the limited edition and the 1st pressing will be available, so grab yours fast.
The Swedes, in a landmark case have jailed the four founders of The Pirate Bay (TPB). Frederik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Carl Lundstrom and Peter Sunde were found guilty of breaking copyright law and were sentenced to a year in jail and ordered to pay $4.5m in damages. The damages were awarded to a number of entertainment companies, including Warner Bros, Sony Music Entertainment, EMI, and Columbia Pictures. Guess their time ran out– remember “Everytime you download music, god kills a kitten.”

I met Ori a few years ago– he refers to me as “couch 35″. Ori is a lot of things, but above all else he is a marketer and a very good one. He recently posted this video to his site couchsurfingori.com and I had to share it. Enjoy! Read more…
